Chapter 128 She Said She's Lazy

Vera made a very good point. "If you put Evergreen University under my name, then I'm the principal. What kind of principal beats up students? If the media finds out, they'll definitely criticize me harshly. While criticizing me, they'll discover that my husband is the famous business tycoon Patrick from Donnicia. Then they'll scold me for 'not managing my husband well' and you for indulging your wife." Patrick found himself increasingly captivated by her words. He murmured, "No, when the media finds out that I'm your backing, those who criticize you will turn to praise you."

"Why?"

Patrick retorted, "Who dares to say a bad word about my wife? Do you think I'd let them off?"

Vera was stunned.

Why was Patrick so ruthless and terrifying?

However, he was also so domineering!

"Honey, you can't do that. You need to be a good person. Don't use your money and power to threaten people into submission. If one day you fall from grace, those people will trample all over you. You should always leave some room for maneuver." This was something Vera had concluded after a recent argument with Cindy and a spat with Shawn.

Patrick maintained his calm demeanor but spoke with an imperial tone unique to him. "That day will never come, and no one can command me."

He looked at the naive Vera. Perhaps she had only heard the legendary rise of the Olteran Group and didn't truly understand the business empire he had built.

"Vera, even if I spend every day idling at home with you, the Olteran Group will always be a myth."

Vera blinked, secretly thinking that he was arrogant.

"I'm not arrogant."

It was as if Patrick had developed mind-reading abilities. He guessed her thoughts from her expression.

Vera playfully stuck out her tongue. "What if I give you a spendthrift son who bankrupts the company?"

Patrick replied, "That won't happen, don't worry."

"Honey, why?"

Vera recalled how her professors could talk for hours when they mentioned Patrick's name in class, which she found boring. However, her parents also admired him greatly.
